While having a strong presence of the type 3 personality (the Achiever) amongst our team, personality traits relatable to this type, such as being adaptable, hardworking and highly focus, led us to understand our potential to perform as a team
• Dr. Tuckman’s four stages team model: From the moment the team was confirmed, our way through the forming and storming stages were greatly enhanced by our similar personality traits. This helped us reach the norming stage as efficiently as when the team charter was started. Now in the performing stage, the team consistently allows itself to momentarily go back to norming and storming in order to ensure the continuous optimization of the team’s productivity
• The application of the Drexler/Sibbet team performance model during the entire team charter creation process. In a similar way as with Dr. Tuckman’s team model, our team started in the creating phase and now continuously tries to find a good balance inside the sustaining phase, while allowing ourselves to go back and answer fundamental questions in the creating phase for maximum productivity and satisfaction
• All the members will be evaluated based on their ability to organize and plan the sessions, attend the meetings and prioritize tasks and
Prompt #4 Response: Successful team performance first includes a clear sense of self. It is easier to work with a team when you know yourself first and then get to know the others on the team. A defined strategy and a clear vision of success are key in working with a team. Threats to a team are indecisiveness, not understanding your team members. Psychological factors include internal functioning and expectations in team performance.

Dave is in a different category of team development as his requirement forms from a specific need or objective. The selection of team members does not follow the same structure as that for Kyle and Steve whereas Dave must form team dynamics based on who is provided to the team, not necessary based on expertise but on who is available at the time. With this deviation from a normal talent pool to a modified experience pool, precise responsiveness for encouraging members' team identification is leadership (Huettermann et al., 2012). Knowing the experience pool of potential team members is dependent of availability of personnel requires the leader too quickly and activity combined level of followers' self-concepts, abilities, and aptitude to achieve the project goals there forth strengthening the team’s identification and stimulating team-oriented efforts (Huettermann et al., 2012). This type of team building leadership requires a strong understanding of personalities and personality types. This is one of Dave’s strengths and is the underlying concept of his position. Strong interaction with differing personalities requires a skilled leader to communicate in ways that will not hinder the process as opposite personalities begin forming and norming in group dynamics (Bell & Smith, 2010).

Cultural diversity is an essential piece of the team-building puzzle. As stated earlier, a heterogeneous team usually equals a successful team. A culturally diverse team brings the obvious cultural differences in language, dress and traditions to the table. In addition, less tangible characteristic such as moral values are equally, if not more important. These different methodologies and teachings help influence the team's direction. Persons of Western culture will have a different set of beliefs and methodologies from those of Middle Eastern or Eastern ethnicity. When team members take the time to learn and understand each culture's moral value, the result is a strong team foundation. High performance teams take and incorporate these cultural differences and use these different beliefs and values to attain the team goal.
Lencioni’s theory fits best within the first two stages of Tuckman’s team development theory, the forming and storming phases where trust is established, goals are created, and processes are outlined. The other phases of Tuckman’s theory occur as many of these dysfunctions are worked out and not overshadowing the team dynamic any longer. In each stage of team development shows detectable moods and behaviors. The four stages are a supportive outline for identifying a team 's behavioral patterns. Looking at each stage can help us understand the development and what is possibly needed to make the team work.
The team members should know how important a project is to the company and stride to achieve the goals in a professional manner. Each member should contribute one hundred and ten percent of their input to the group to make the project the best that it can be. Every member of the team should be rewarded individually for their performance, insights, and total input that is beneficial to the team. Communication is the key to a productive team. Without proper communication with a high performance team, it will be very difficult for the team to be victorious on the project they are trying to accomplish.
A shared goal has a major impact on the success of a team. For such a common goal or vision to be understood and sustained, interdependence and mutual understanding must be developed. For this to happen, there must be support of the team must be present. Trust must be present and must be recognized (Loo & Loewen, 2003).
Working in teams provides an opportunity for individuals to come together and establish a rapport towards others within a group. Teamwork is classified as people with different strengths and skills who work together to achieve a common goal. When a team works well, specific objectives are fulfilled and satisfied. Teamwork plays a crucial role in implementing and fulfilling a common goal in a team project. Each member plays a role and takes on different responsibilities combined together. In different stages of teamwork, conflicts and arguments may occur for as members have different standpoints which need to be harmonized within the team. The key to having an effective teamwork is to explore each member's unique abilities to motivate them.

Many businesses place an emphasis on the importance of teamwork. A good team consists of people with different skills, abilities and characters. A successful team is able to blend these differences together to enable the organisation to achieve its desired objectives.
Skills and knowledge possessed by every member is also important for a team to become high performance. Although it is among the most important factors, however, it must be coupled with a good working relationship with every team member and good collaboration with every team member. The members who possess the good skills and wide knowledge will be a useful resource to the team if that team member can share their strengths with the other team members and vice versa. It is usually misconstrued that having skillful and intelligent team members is already enough to make a team work right. This kind of thinking is the reason why most teams, despite all of those competent members they have, fail to achieve their goals. A team should establish one common goal, not to think that way and develop a good working relationship with each member. (retrieved from: http://www.strictlysuccess.com, August 18, 2005) This can be done by self awareness exercises, like the DISC assessment and other assessments or any other kind of self awareness exercises regarding communication style differences. Then these factors and important pieces of information should be taken into full consideration before the actual project is begun. These exercise or assessments can be great ice breakers and mark the difference between a group of individuals merely assigned to a team, as opposed to functioning as...
